Employers can greatly benefit from having working parents on their roster, as working parents are more engaged and motivated than other demographics in the workplace. However, as working parents juggle their own work schedules, back-to-school duties and other child care challenges, their employers have often left them feeling cold.

Career Corner: Ask a Recruiter
|
How can I figure out what jobs I’m qualified for?
|
|
|
Every once in a while, I’m approached by a client who asks me to review their resume or LinkedIn and tell them all the roles they’re qualified to perform. Yikes, that can get overwhelming VERY fast. There may be many roles you are qualified to perform, but that doesn’t mean you want to actually perform those roles. The more strategic question jobseekers should ask themselves - what are work problems that I’m uniquely positioned to solve, which also energize me?
An educator may be qualified to write curriculum full time, but that doesn’t mean they are energized by the idea of such a role if they prefer spending their time training other teachers. A finance manager may spend hours in excel managing complex budgets and assessing resources, but that doesn’t mean they’d be energized by a role in data analytics though they may have begun acquiring the skills necessary to pivot to the field.
Once you reflect on the work that brings you energy (it can be helpful to look at your work calendar and consider what aspects of your day bring you joy, do some journalizing about when you’re in the zone professionally, or thought partner with a trusted colleague who has worked with you and seen you at your best), begin reviewing job descriptions in your target roles. Spend time reading the role description and desired qualifications and identify where you stand. Perhaps the job function is right, but the seniority level may need adjusting.
